This place is a gem. It’s unlike any other lodging we’ve ever stayed in, with retro 50s-60s charm balanced by modern comforts & conveniences. Our room was spacious, immaculate, and cheery, and the Amish bed was super comfortable. Parking was right outside our door, and we loved sitting in the shared patio area a few steps away. Steve is a gracious and affable host, and the Groovy! Groovy! Gift Gallery has items we’d never found in other places but knew we needed :) The Pines Motorlodge is just a short walk from amazing restaurants, shops, and art galleries. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!
